Xiao Lin and Gu Xiaoyue had their umbrellas with them, but the rain next to the sea was way too heavy, so they were practically useless. Xiao Lin glanced at Gu Xiaoyue, and noticed that her entire body was soaked. He immediately took off his raincoat and gave it to her, and feeling very pleased with himself, said, Thankfully I came prepared
Gu Xiaoyue did not accept it, immediately pointing toward somewhere nearby. Theres someone there!
Looking toward where she was pointing, he noticed a few human-like silhouettes swimming quickly through the waves in the horizon, closing in on the beach.
The waves were extremely turbulent, but those humanoids did not sit on any boats. Xiao Lin immediately suspected that they were from another academy.
Lets avoid them for now.
They had sneaked over themselves, and did not want to get caught. Being sent back to Dawn Academy would probably result in them being punished, so the two of them temporarily left the beach, finding a wooden house for cover.
The inside of the house was very messy, it was obvious that the original owner had left in a panic. There were even fruits that had been cut but not eaten on the table. Xiao Lin did not mind it as he grabbed the fruits, eating them as he tried to summon Silverlight from his spatial ring.
This time Silverlight actually answered his summon, appearing in front of him. Xiao Lin had already told Gu Xiaoyue about Silverlight on the way there, so Gu Xiaoyue did not show that much surprise, only nodding subtly as a greeting.
Silverlight did not usually interact with others, but after glancing at Gu Xiaoyue, a flash of astonishment and confusion appeared on her face, but Xiao Lins words quickly interrupted her thoughts.
Weve arrived in Hawaii, which is where the drawing is. However, I dont see any dark seawater. Why is that? You said you wanted to seal Poseidon. Are you planning on doing it yourself?
Xiao Lins string of questions caused Silverlight to furrow her eyebrows. After thinking for a moment, she said in her clear voice, That isnt black seawater, its the sea gods Guardians. Their bodies are black, and create that effect when they are near the surface of the sea. The gray areas are their mouths. I think they appeared here to receive and protect Poseidon. As for the last question, regretfully, if I was able to defeat Poseidon, I would not have needed to escape to Planet Norma.
Xiao Lin was flabbergasted. You still asked us to come here. What can we do?
Dont worry, Poseidons seal is definitely not open yet. I estimate it was just slightly loosened, or the thunderstorm would not be on such a meager scale.
Meager? Gu Xiaoyue raised her head and looked at the dark sky outsidethe raindrops were causing very shocking impacts on the window.
Silverlight looked at Gu Xiaoyue. Xiao Lin did not know if his senses were off, but he felt like the woman seemed to be measuring Gu Xiaoyue. Likely noticing Xiao Lins attention, Silverlight quickly withdrew her gaze, mockingly saying, Do you really think that something called the sea god would only be able to do this much?
Xiao Lin fell silent. Then if the sea gods seal was completely erased, and his power fully returned, then how much stronger would he be compared to right now?
Silverlight thought about it. Probably over ten thousand times stronger. Ive already told you that he was around Planet Normas Legend rank.
Xiao Lin sighed. If Silverlights words were true, then if Poseidon really got out, even if the academies sent all their top experts to fight him, ignoring the laws, Earth would be left destroyed, no matter the result of the battle.
What should we do?
Perfect the seal! Silverlight already had a plan, so she explained, Initially, even if Ive never seen it myself, I understand the seals from back then quite well. As long as you bring me to the seal, Ill be able to make up for any flaws on the seal!
Then do you know where the seal is?
I dont.
Xiao Lin was speechless as he massaged his forehead. I feel like we should stop going around in circles. Could you just explain everything in one go?
Thats because you keep interrupting me. Silverlight looked at Xiao Lin and continued, The sea gods Guardians wont leave Poseidon. Since theyre here, it means that Poseidon is almost positive to be around the area.
Xiao Lin suppressed the urge to interrupt, but Gu Xiaoyue said, Even so, how could we avoid the Guardians? You said that Poseidon has Legend-rank powers. What about the Guardians? How powerful are they.
The strongest are at Epic levels, but its impossible for them to be that strong now. After slumbering for tens of thousands of years, they would have lost most of their powers, so I think theyll probably be around Gold-rank in power.
Xiao Lin and Gu Xiaoyue looked at each other, both seeing each others doubts. They were not scared, but if they were honest, it was impossible for them to beat anyone at that level, even if they worked together, let alone now when they did not know how many opponents they would have.
Maybe we can have other people help us distract the Guardians. Xiao Lin remembered those people from the sea earlier. It was obvious that a few academies had sent their people here.
Xiao Lin could not help but add, Or maybe we could ask Dawn Academy for help.
He was not worried about being punished. With Song Junlang and the student union president, on top of the dean as his backers, the academy would not punish him in any substantial way.
I dont trust them. Silverlight clearly rejected it, and she was unreasonable. Xiao Lin could not beat her in a fight, nor could he reason with her.
They rested in the wooden house for about an hour, and more and more conversations could be heard in the rain. They spoke in English, but there were too many countries that did too. However, after Gu Xiaoyue carefully listened for a few minutes, she determined that they were Americans, which meant that they were very likely from Judge Academy.
They could not clearly hear the conversations in the rain, and could only grasp a few vague words, such as temple, remnants, and monsters.
The Sea Gods Temple? Poseidons remnants?
Xiao Lin translated the words to Silverlight after she failed to understand them, asking her if she could think of anything. The woman might have learned Mandarin in a short time, but English was still a foreign language to her. Silverlights expression was a little astonished. She did not think for too long, sighing as she said, I dont think theyre talking about the Sea Gods Temple, but rather Atlantiss temple. Back then, we built many temples for the gods, but most of them had probably been destroyed after the disaster. If any of them were to remain till this day, it would be the Priests Shrine.
